FINANCIAL RESULTS
1 The Group`s turnover has increased by 11% when compared to the comparative
six months but made a loss for the period ended 31 August 2004.
2 The franchising division returned to profitability for the interim period
The Lusitania fish and processing factory was affected by lower capacity
through the factory, due to poor catches by the local fishing
industry, resulting in losses for the period.
EXCEPTIONAL ITEMS
The exceptional items disclosed in the income statement arose from:
1 Loss on discontinued operation resulting from the closure of a company owned
store.
2 Profit on sale of Mike`s Kitchen Franchise
3 Provision against prior year loans.
PROSPECTS
The profits in the Group`s trading divisions are weighted towards the second
half of the year, due to the seasonal nature of the Groups operations
The directors are looking forward to posting better results by year end.
